Comments:
A somewhat amusing take on Summoned!Harry who for once is not expected to kill a dark lord (Outright anyway). It's enough off the usual story start to have jump started my muse, which is rare enough that I felt the need to share it. Personally i'd give it a 4/5.

Edit: A warning, it's only three chapters long at the moment

 

That's fine, I'm certainly not reading more than three chapters of this lol.

Every attempt at humor failed dramatically. It's almost like a throwaway premise that might find itself in a segment of a Seth McFarlane show. Peter Griffin will make a quip like "Hey, this reminds me of the time I was hanging out with Harry Potter the summoner!"

Cue a scene at Hogwarts where Harry's eating breakfast with his mates, and then dead spirits suddenly burst into existence and Ron chokes on his cereal out of shock. Harry frantically dismisses them and Hermione admonishes him:

"You naughty necromancer/summoner you!"

The writing style is - there is none, so I'll stop right there.

What a god-awfully retarded story. Not sure why this would catch anybody's eye or why it would jumpstart any muses.

1/5.

 

It's like a cheap, badly executed rip off of A Black Comedy. I think I got to the bit with the greasy redhead (Lily I presume) before I said fuck that shit and closed the window.

.5/5

 

Yeah, I don't mind some of his other stories, but this one is just plain horrible.

 

This is crap. This would be barely passable as a oneshot.

 

What is this crud supposed to be? I didn't get even halfway through chapter one. It isn't even readable. Heck, I have read grammatically horrible, plot-dead, pieces of crap that have more intriguing style to the writing than this.

Frankly, 1/5 is generous to this piece.

 

I am generous. 1/5 for grammar and spelling.

Yeah, one or two sentence made me chuckle a bit, but that's it. The rest was like watching a really bad stand-up comedy on stage.

In for the trash bin. I am not even sure if there is any need to wait for two weeks before I move it.

 

I laughed, I cried, I pressed the big red 'x' before I'd finished six lines.

Agreed.

 

I went in with an open mind, but that really was terrible, in pretty much every respect.

 

Well. There's not many spelling mistakes.

That's the positive part of my review.

The negative part?

Everything else.

Trash Bin.

 

Eh. I thought it was bad, but not to the degree you guys did. I found it readable, if barely, in that it didn't take itself too seriously.

 

I could not even get through the first chapter.

The author tries really hard to be funny, but it's just awful.

1/5

 

It really is just terrible. Difficult to say any more than that.

Not rating/5

 

It was readable - and little else - up to the part where Harry becomes a sex god. Torn away from a "blonde bombshell" threesome? Really?

Then in the second chapter he's also all-powerful, and rescues Gabriella from the horrors of...the attic. In chapter three Fleur is acting like she's in heat, while at the same time doing her best to portray every lead female in every poorly written indy!Harry fic ever.

It reads like the author was trying to be humorous for the first half of chapter one, realizes his idea is a larger disaster than summoning Cthulhu, and turns the whole thing into a self-insert indy!Harry super!Harry harem story, hoping no one notices that he was serious for the first 30 lines.

1/5

 

I read. I chuckled. I enjoyed. I wouldn't reccomend.

Don't get the level of contempt some people have shown for it, but I guess that just comes down to preferences.

 

I smiled a little bit for the brief time I read it, but it's one of those completely forgettable fics that come and go by the hundreds every day.
2/5

 

A few lines made me smile/chuckle weakly...but this is pretty terrible.

The hinted Snape/Lily also makes me feel ill.

The writing, though technically sound, isn't even all that good.

 

This is all of the worst aspects of Dogbertcaroll made real. Everything that usually makes me cringe when I try to read his stories feels like its been rarified into this one.

There are the abrupt plot jerkarounds, the not quite patronizing attitudes, and the vaguely wrong sounding dialogue, and it's all turned up to 11. The comparison to Family Guy was apt.

 

I've seen worse, but it's not great.There were a few lines which made me chuckle a bit but I wouldn't say it was funny. There just isn't anything to recommend this.

2/5
